can i make voice calls form ipad mini..does it have dailing option.

No. Your iPad is not a phone. You can use Skype or similar to do that if you wish. Or you can use FaceTime to other Apple devices that support it in the right situation (e.g., both on WiFi).

iPad mini cellular insert cellular sim slot still can't make a phone call via local operator

For samsung galaxy tab able to voice calls for 3G sim function. iPad mini if can make a voice call is it better for all Apple Fan??

See my previous post. Again, the iPad is not a phone. If you want a phone device from Apple, purchase an iPhone. An iPhone makes calls, an iPad does not (except Skype and FaceTime, as explained above).

Hi all,

I wondered the same thing. Which is does an iPad have the phone hardware. My iPad3 has a phone number associated with it. Is it lack of hardware or software that is the issue? I might be interested in a iPad mini if I could use it as a phone. I never thought I would be saying that. Maybe in the next version of the iPad mini.

I have a ipad3 and a iPhone 4S. I like the idea of a iPhone big enough to support the iPad display layout opposed to the iPhone layout. And at what minimal screen size would be needed 5 inch 6 inch, etc. in order to basicly turn an iPhone into an iPhone/iPad or whatever it would be called.

I answered your question above. Here it is again:

No. Your iPad is not a phone. You can use Skype or similar to do that if you wish. Or you can use FaceTime to other Apple devices that support it in the right situation (e.g., both on WiFi).

In all do respect, You dd not really answer my question/statement. Which was, is it that the ipad does not have the phone circuits/hardware or is is a matter of just adding the phone app from the iPhone. I am thinking it must be that the actual phone circuitry is not present in an ipad.. There are other tablets on the market that work as a phone and a tablet computer. Anyway that would be the only reason for me to get a ipad mini is if the next version included a phone.
